At some stage every teenager gets a spotty face. Sometimes the condition lingers on into later life, or just reappears occasionally.

How then do you deal with a sudden outbreak of spots or pimples? Here’s a sideways method.

1. Grind up five aspirin tablets in a small bowl — aspirin is anti-bacterial and anti-inflammatory.
2. Add a spoonful of honey — honey is a powerful germ killer.
3, Wash the face and spread the mixture over it .
4. Leave for 10–12 minutes. It should now have dried.
5. Rinse off the mask and pat dry with a clean towel.

Repeat as necessary.
